As the speed of a particle increases, does its associated wavelenght increase or decrease

1 answer:

7 0

The de Broglie hypothesis proposed that all particles have wave-like properties, with the wavelength being inversely proportional to the velocity of the particle.

Therefore as the velocity (speed in this question) increases, the wavelength *decreases*.

How much energy does a 445 nm wave of light have? (The speed of light in a

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Explanation:

To calculate questions like this, you need to make use of the equation below:

E = hν

E is the energy, h is Planck's constant, and ν is the frequency.

Also, another important formula you need for this question is the following:

ν = c / λ

ν is the frequency, c is the speed of light, and λ is the wavelength.

Therefore, E = hν = hc/λ.

Also remember to convert nm wavelength to meters.

To answer the question, E = hc/λ = ((6.626*10^-34 J•s)(3*10^8 m/s))/(4.45*10-7 m) = 4.42 • 10^-19 J = A

Which of the following rules should you follow to balance chemical equations?

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

c. add coefficients as needed

Explanation:

A chemical equation is defined as the equation that shows changes in a chemical reaction. A chemical equation consist of reactant and product, reactant is at left side of the arrow and product is at right side of the arrow.

Reactant => Product

While balancing a chemical equation, the basic rule is to balance the coefficient as required. Coefficient represents the number of molecules and is used at front of a chemical symbol. Change in coefficient helps balance the number of atoms or molecules of the substances on both the sides of the arrow.

Subscripts are never allowed to change because it can change the chemical involved in the reaction.

Hence, the correct answer is "c. add coefficients as needed".

A scientist wants to make a solution of tribasic sodium phosphate, Na3PO4, for a laboratory experiment. How many grams of Na3PO4

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

31.652g of Na3PO4

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the molarity of Na3PO4 solution. This can be achieved as shown below:

Na3PO4 will dessicate in solution as follow:

Na3PO4(aq) —> 3Na+(aq) + PO4³¯(aq)

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Na3PO4 produce 3 moles of sodium ion, Na+.

Therefore, xM Na3PO4 will produce 1.10M sodium ion, Na+ i.e

xM Na3PO4 = (1.10 x 1)/3

xM Na3PO4 = 0.367M

Therefore, the molarity of Na3PO4 is 0.367M.

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of Na3PO4 in the solution. This is illustrated below:

Molarity of Na3PO4 = 0.367M

Volume = 525mL = 525/1000 = 0.525L

Mole of Na3PO4 =..?

Molarity = mole /Volume

0.367 = mole /0.525

Cross multiply

Mole of Na3PO4 = 0.367 x 0.525

Mole of Na3PO4 = 0.193 mole.

Finally, we shall convert 0.193 mole of Na3PO4 to grams. This is illustrated below:

Molar mass of Na3PO4 = (23x3) + 31 + (16x4) = 164g/mol

Mole of Na3PO4 = 0.193 mole

Mass of Na3PO4 =.?

Mass = mole x molar mass

Mass of Na3PO4 = 0.193 x 164

Mass of Na3PO4 = 31.652g

Therefore, 31.652g of Na3PO4 is needed to prepare the solution.

Suppose a solution is described as concentrated. Which of the following statements can be concluded? Select the correct answer b

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

last option: none of the above.

Explanation:

Describing a solution as concentrated tells that the solution has a relative large concentration, but it is a qualitative description, not a quantitative one, so this does not tell really how concentrated the solution is. This is, the term concentrated is a kind of vague; it just lets you know that the solution is not very diluted, but, as said initially, that there is a relative large amount (concentration) of solute.

One conclusion, of course, is that the solute is soluble: else the solution were not concentrated.

On the other hand, the terms saturated and supersaturated to define a solution are specific.

A saturated solution has all the solute that certain amount of solvent can contain, at a given temperature. A supersaturated solution has more solute dissolved than the saturated solution at the same temperature; superstaturation is a very unstable condition.

From above, there is no way that you can conclude whether a solution is supersaturated or not from the statement that a solution is concentrated, so the answer is none of the above.
